Thomas Henry Huxley

Casa editrice: DigiCat

Sinossi

In "The Rise and Progress of Palaeontology," Thomas Henry Huxley presents a comprehensive examination of the evolution of paleontological science, intertwining empirical research with philosophical inquiry. Huxley's literary style is both didactic and engaging, utilizing accessible language to demystify complex scientific concepts for a broader audience. The text situates itself within the scientific debates of the late 19th century, particularly addressing the tensions between evolving evolutionary theory and the prevailing doctrines of creationism, making a significant contribution to the fields of both paleontology and evolutionary biology. As a prominent biologist and a staunch advocate for Darwinian evolution, Huxley's background in comparative anatomy deeply influenced his scholarly pursuits. His extensive work in both education and public engagement reflects his commitment to making science approachable and relevant. Huxley's role as a crucial figure in science communication paved the way for a greater understanding and appreciation of paleontology as a distinct discipline, shaped by his synthesis of scientific evidence and ethical considerations. This enlightening book is essential for both scholars and laypersons interested in the genesis of paleontological thought. Huxley's insights not only illuminate the scientific milieu of his time but also encourage a profound appreciation for the intricate tapestry of life's history on Earth. Readers will find themselves compelled by Huxley's passion and clarity as they navigate the rich terrain of life's evolutionary past.

Smiles Made Here - How Culture...

Jeremiah Sturgill

Welcome to A Practice Built on CultureIn an orthodontic practice, great culture is about more than creating a good place for people to work, it can determine the success of the practice. A great workplace culture is one where everyone smiles, is genuinely happy to be there, and works together as a team. It’s clear to anyone entering the practice that something truly amazing is happening, and that amazing feeling translates to excellence in treatment and care.In Smiles Made Here: How Culture Forges Success in an Orthodontic Practice, Dr. Jeremiah Sturgill explains how Sturgill Orthodontics became a practice where team members—and patients—want to be. Using his own journey in building a practice as an example, he shares how other orthodontists can build an amazing culture in their practices by focusing on what matters most: providing excellent care while genuinely caring about people. From a different kind of morning huddle to showing heart in the workplace, coaching the team, understanding the value of autonomy, and creating an environment where people feel safe, Dr. Sturgill shows how focusing on culture can lead to an amazing transformation.In this book, Dr. Sturgill also shares answers to some of the most common questions that patients and parents of young patients often have about treatment, and how culture impacts the care at Sturgill Orthodontics. He talks about when treatment is needed, when to start, the art of the smile, and more. As a specialist in temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ or TMD) and airway protective orthodontics, Dr. Sturgill also shares the important role orthodontics plays in treating problems of the jaw and airway. Finally, he discusses how the value of orthodontics goes beyond straightening teeth and how all orthodontists are not created equal—and culture is the differentiator.

The Olive Farm - A Memoir of...

Carol Drinkwater

This memoir of buying and transforming an abandoned olive farm “describes life in the South of France with lush, voluptuous appreciation” (Publishers Weekly). Presented with an opportunity to purchase a ten-acre property near Cannes, actress Carol Drinkwater and her film-producer fiancé, Michel, decide to take the plunge. It will take all their savings just for the down payment, but the beauty of the surrounding countryside and the promise of a new adventure seem worth the risk. As they work to clear the weeds and rehabilitate the abandoned farm, they meet Provence’s quirky locals, puzzle through France’s legal bureaucracy, explore the nearby Mediterranean islands, and encounter the region’s wildlife. This colorful memoir from the Sunday Times–bestselling author recounts one couple’s remarkable journey from being inspired but inexperienced new landowners to realizing their dream of a fulfilling, peaceful life on their own little plot of paradise. “Good-humored and well-written.” —The Washington Post “A fantasy come true, as it will be for many of the readers who yearn to experience the magic of southern France.” —The Austin Chronicle
